Already living in a society that mistrusts them, the mutants are faced with even more discrimination after an unforeseen enemy - who may be a mutant with extraordinary powers - launches a devastating attack. The news of the assault causes a public outcry against the mutants, including renewed support for the Mutant Registration Act, and William Stryker, a military leader rumored to have experimented on mutants (possibly including Wolverine), is among the most vocal supporters of the legislation. Stryker puts into motion a plan to eradicate the mutants and begins an offensive on the X-Men mansion and school. Magneto, having escaped from his plastic prison, forms an unlikely alliance with Professor Xavier to stop Stryker. Meanwhile, Wolverine heads north to investigate his past. The X-Men band together to find a mutant assassin who has made an attempt on the President's life, while the Mutant Academy is attacked by military forces. I'll admit that I was not hyperactively anxious to see X2. This is basically because the first X-men was a film that I thought was OK then grew to like more and more after many watchings. So I expected think that X2 would be OK. Well I got to see one of the best sequels ever!<br/><br/>The greatest thing about X2 is that it picks up right where it left off, rewarding everyone who saw the first film. Some may think that will confuse casual viewers, but too bad for them, they should have seen the first film.<br/><br/>The acting is suburb. All of the actors retain the personalities they gave to their characters in the first film so well that it feels like X-men and X2 were filmed back to back. Everyone from Hugh Jackman to Alan Cumming played their characters enough to make them all lovable.<br/><br/>The drama is played up more. We get to see the Jean Grey/Cyclops/Wolverine love triangle continue, and the beginnings of the relationship of Iceman and Rouge, which is an uphill struggle because Rouge can't touch other people without sucking the life out of them.<br/><br/>The action was pumped up massively. Every action scene was an adrenaline rush. Nightcrawler attacking the White House was amazing. The storming of the school was fantastic (the 5 seconds in which Colossus was on the screen made me wanna stand up and cheer) and the Deathstrike/Wolverine fight was brutal and insane. The violence has been upped, allowing Wolverine to do some hacking and slashing, without bloodshed mind you, it's still a PG-13 film. <br/><br/>Overall X2 is a film that picks up where the first left off and takes it to a whole new level and gives an ending which I didn't see coming. X2 will definately be on my list for one of the best films of 2003. I would definitely say this movie was way better than the first film, which definitely tells you what? See this movie. Every single thing was well put together and interestingly plotted and organized into one stylish action-packed thriller. This film had better acting than the first one, even though the first had pretty good acting, there was more action and the characters were stronger than ever. The new "villian" is played very well and I think he replaced Magneto for half the film well.<br/><br/>We are now joined with a new group of characters. We have Pyro, played by the gorgeous and extremely talented Aaron Stanford, he did an x-cellent job, Alan Cumming as Kurt Wagner, I would say his performance was way superior, Brian Cox as William Stryker, the new "villian", and Kelly Hu as the small part of Lady Deathstrike. The small performances by say Colossus were good even though he only had a line or two. Anna Paquin returns as Rogue and tops her performance in the first. He character is now stronger and more developed. We also have Iceman in there who I think was played in a great performance by Shawn Ashmore.<br/><br/>One more thing I loved; the writing. Most action movies are brought down by awful writing(i.e. Star Wars Episode 2) but this film was very well written. This movie showed a certain wit to it and had some great humor added into the lines. The movie was never rushed nor was it ever slow. I really liked Famke Janssen in this movie because her character, Jean Grey was also developed and her powers grew stronger. Storm, played by the beautiful Halle Berry, had more screen time and a bigger role in this installment and had a great relationship with Nightcrawler. Patrick Stewart was great in this one again and he also seemed a little more into his character in this movie.<br/><br/>One more thing; the action and the special effects. Brilliant. This movie had more action than the first and great special effects. They all looked very real to me! All the characters that had action put a lot into their performances and looked like they actually had the powers their characters did. My two favorite battles were Lady Deathstrike v.s. Wolverine and the scene in Boston where Rogue(Marie), Bobby(Iceman), Logan(Wolverine), and John(Pyro), where Pyro started burning all the police cars. Those were my favorite scenes.<br/><br/>Overall, this movie is the best so far and it does not disappoint. An engaging spectacle of energy and special effects built around a doomy mood and an ensemble cast vigorously pursuing a story line that isn't nearly as snazzy as the dressing. …all while a phoenix silhouette is visible over the lake. a5c7b9f00b Justice League vs. Teen Titans movie hindi free downloadCourtin' Trouble full movie in hindi free downloadhindi Baby's Wild Ride free downloadEpisode 1.154 full movie in hindi free download hd 1080pResident Evil in hindi 720pMedieval Crimes movie in hindi free downloadThe Bascom Home Guard sub downloadTwo Wrongs full movie in hindi 720p downloadDouble XL full movie in hindi free download mp4Mortal Kombat in tamil pdf download
